[Zhang, Xiong Y] Yes, I remembered your concern and have been seeking the accurate map between IGD and PCH in the past months. Unfortunately no one could give us such document. Then as Jonnas suggested, we try to pass real pch id from host to guest. But we couldn't find a secure and acceptable register to pass such info. Finally this issue blocks QA CI system for a long time and QA complained this. So we decided to send this again and resolve part of issue. This is a limitation of IGD passthrough and need a spec which define how to pass real pch id from host to guest in virtual environment. But this need the top level design and much more time. thanks > > I'm not opposed to merging the patch, but this needs to be documented > for posterity. > > Of course, this gets *much* more complicated from SKL/SPT on, where the > combos can be mixed even more freely (e.g. SKL+KBP and KBL+SPT). > > > BR, > Jani. > > > > > -Daniel > > > >> DRM_DEBUG_KMS("Assuming LynxPoint PCH\n"); > >> } else if (IS_SKYLAKE(dev_priv) || IS_KABYLAKE(dev_priv)) { > >> ret = PCH_SPT; > >> -- > >> 2.7.4 > >> > >> _______________________________________________ > >> Intel-gfx mailing list > >> Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > >> https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx > > -- > Jani Nikula, Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
